in america. we saw in the lives of millions of americans out of work. and the families forced to leave their homes and the elderly down in the security of their retirement after lives of hard work. we saw it when small businesses laying off workers in the face of falling sales and rising healthcare costs and we knew things were not right when our middle class were running just to standstill for a decade and we knew something wasn't right in a political culture that thrived too long on easy choices. on the philosophy of deficits don't matter. publicly or personally, entitlements, wars and tax cuts for the privileged all paid for with borrowed cash. to be paid back by our children. for six years our republican colleagues had an unprecedented chance to put their ideology into law. and they did. and they drove our economy into a ditch. that failure is a fact. and we have to learn from that fact if we want to do better. but placing blame is not the point. because america's recovery is now our responsi

past 18 months is we have this secrecy, where you have the fed and the treasury, pressuring bank of america, possibly, not to talk about the losses that it could incur with the purchase of merrill lynch. so all of his backroom secrecy, this idea that big government and big banks are colluding to hide information from investors has led to these proposals to audit the fed, all kinds of other things. i think if we get out of the bailout business, people will feel more comfortable that there is transparency, consistent release of information. that the government isn't using its powers to favor certain institutions over others. so some of this pressure will go away. as for this specific proposal of auditing the bed, i don't think it's helpful because it looks like congress has -- the fed is always politicized. the congress obviously votes on the fed chairman, but we don't need more day-to-day political interference if there are auditing monetary policy, it confuses the markets as to what the fed is -- is it making its decisions based on the merits or based on its congressional audit. thank you.
